Kviteseid, Telemark, Norway), his wife Karen Kristine Frantsdatter, and their young son Torjus arrived at the Skoponong settlement in La Grange Township, Walworth, in 1843. Karen died sometime around 1848. Church records for Skoponong Church do not exist for that time, however. Then Vetle remarried, supposedly on 23 Jan 1850, to Marthe Halvorsen (Halvorsdatter). I am wondering if somebody has access to the Skoponong church records who could verify this second marriage. I would be very grateful. Thanks!
